INDUCTION OF IL-12 USING IMMUNOTHERAPY

摘要

The present invention relates to compositions and methods that promote the induction of IL-12 in a patient. The composition includes activated allogeneic cells that are administered to a patient with a disease such as cancer. Administration of the composition skews the patient's immune response to a Th1 environment and produces detectable levels of IL-12 in the patient's plasma, without any IL-12 related toxicity.
